[Intro: Chrisette Michele & S.O.]
Kings and queens, philosophers have tried so hard to find
Me too
Tell me what you say that truly makes it real
I don't know I'm sorry
What's your definition of it?
Sing
What's your definition of it?
Sing
What's your definition of it?
How's it make you feel?
Let's go
[Verse 1: S.O.]
Uh
I tried to find it in the ladies like
SeeI was born in the 80s with the 80s hype
All the girls went crazy for the razor stripes
Va-va-voom was the vroom with the chasing lights (Ha)
But I was doomed, consumed before I hit the door
Then I was moved, when se said, "Mi amor" (Love)
All my boys like "We applaud it"
But our views were oh so distorted
We were untaught kids
Tortured our mind with the pictures
Caught in rewind we were [?]
Of course we were blind never listened for wisdom or cause for the bride, no (Same story)
So I cried, like who can save from this plight?
What's love, is it in this life?
What buzz did I lose trying to win this fight?
So I thought 'til I witnessed Christ
So now
[Chorus: Chrisette Michele & S.O.]
Love is You
Yes Lord it is
Love is You
Yes Lord it is
Love is You
I said that love is so You
Love is You
Because Your love is so true
Love is You
Yes Lord it is
Love is You
Yes Lord it is
Love is You
I said that love is so You
Love is You
Because Your love is so true, uh
[Verse 2: S.O.]
Look, now my vision's getting clearer, huh
And I'm listening to wisdom and hearing her (What up, girl?)
She clearing up the mist in the mirror, but (Bling)
I ain't vain, don't look in the mirror much
They [?], they collide with 'em
I let 'em know that we're tryna find love by finding 'em
That's so hard, I'm so charged, [?] rising in
Trynna find love with wisdom, God in 'em (Yessuh)
She takes me on a stroll
Let's me know that what I'm gonna show you is something that is so true
This ain't that love or the stuff they are prone to
And it's so real, no frail, she is known full
In the middle of the sentence, I pause for a second feeling awe much more than the presence (Why)
I'm looking at the hill, no longer in the present
I'm at the cross of Christ with a blaring love message
[Chorus: Chrisette Michele & S.O.]
Love is You
Yes Lord it is
Love is You
Yes Lord it is
Love is You
I said that love is so You
Love is You
Because Your love is so true
Love is You
Yes Lord it is
Love is You
Yes Lord it is
Love is You
I said that love is so You
Love is You
Because Your love is so true, uh
[Verse 3: S.O.]
I see better than I saw
The other love that I thought was real was a counterfeit (Fraud)
Cos this love strips all my arrogance (Peace)
And all the bad it's married with
I'm so glad I'm marriageless (Why?)
So when Iook at the wooden tree I see Him all battered and, bruised
Here lies the King of the Jews (Yeah)
He came to bring the good news
Imperative that we see the cross as love shown, yeah
For sinners who are lost, there's love so
We get it to the world cos they must know
That true love is found in the gospel
All that searching around for gold dust in the ground won't work since we're working it out (Uh)
The tuth is in the Scriptures
And cuz if you must know (Tell 'em)
It says God is love, shalom
[Outro: Chrisette Michele]
Love is You
Love is You
Love is You
Love is You
Love is You
Love is You
Love is You
Love is You
